Konoha's Inheritance Master

Chapter 464: Overt and covert fighting, a mountain of traps

Tunan's disciple Mana is normal.

The two of them thought this in their hearts, and the more they looked at it, the more shocked they became.

Especially Hiruzen Sarutobi, who holds the title of Ninjutsu Professor, has such a vicious vision.

The difficulty of the mechanisms in this venue has almost reached the standard of jounin taijutsu, and even in terms of accuracy requirements, ordinary jounin may not be able to achieve it.

This little guy named Itachi, his movements are very weird, as if he is performing, and it is pleasing to the eye.

But this is obviously contrary to the purpose of ninja.

After all, every action of a ninja in combat is about how to be fatal, not about looking good.

"This little guy's movements are very graceful. He should still have some strength." Hiruzen Sarutobi suggested implicitly.

Danzo on the side looked at the scene in the training room, his eyes were neither sad nor happy, and he was frighteningly calm.

But there was already a storm in his heart.

Uchiha Shisui, who activated the Mangekyō Sharingan on the battlefield, and the kid in front of him who had just entered the ninja school.

Even if they were pushed forward a few decades, few people could match their talents.

No, the evil Uchiha clan will only become stronger and stronger with Uchiha Tunan here.

They now have more and more resources, and their children can enjoy almost the best education in the ninja world.

If this continues, the other ninja clans in Konoha will only slowly die out over time.

Danzo glanced at Uchiha Tunan with a calm expression with his one eye.

It's a shame that I don't have anyone who can match the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki.

But although this guy has an evil origin, he is still reasonable after all.

For the time being, the Uchiha clan can only be suppressed within the rules.

It’s just that my weight alone is not enough.

Danzo thought of this and glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen again.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were almost fixed on Uchiha Itachi.

And Uchiha Tunan finally responded to Sarutobi Hiruzen:

"This is already the limit of his strength. The elegance of his movements is just because he has mastered the rhythm of the battle. It does not look stiff and can almost perfectly display his power."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded thoughtfully and sighed: "Your teaching ability has surpassed mine."

Suddenly, Sarutobi Hiruzen had a flash of inspiration, and then asked: "How old is this child?"

Uchiha Tunan chuckled and shook his head: "He has not awakened the Sharingan."

"Is it because there is no emotional stimulation?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked doubtfully.

Uchiha Tunan smiled slightly and said in a deep voice:
"The water overflows by itself. His talent does not need to go to extremes, as long as he keeps accumulating knowledge."

Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up the cigarette rod and took two puffs, then said softly: "Then do you think he will be able to open the kaleidoscope in the future?"

Uchiha Tunan immediately said in a positive tone:

"Yes, his talent should be even better than that kid from Shisui."

"Furthermore, Shisui's kid is more emotional, while Itachi is more rational. As a ninja, Itachi has the advantage."

When he heard Uchiha Tunan say that Itachi's talent was stronger than Shisui who had turned on the kaleidoscope, Sarutobi Hiruzen was already filled with jealousy.

The two children with terrifying talents were both members of the Uchiha clan, and they were so close to Uchiha Tunan.

You might as well give one of these to me.

Thousands of words finally turned into an unintentional admiration.

"The Uchiha of this era are really full of talents."

As soon as these words came out, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt uncomfortable.

I thought that everyone was short of talents, but it turned out that there were endless talents within the family.

Uchiha Tunan is still so young, he can fully support the growth of these geniuses in the clan.

Just when Sarutobi Hiruzen was melancholy, Uchiha Tunan suddenly said: "Teacher, I want to ask you something."

teacher?

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly became alert.

Since the two broke up over the Tsunade incident, Uchiha Tunan has never called himself that again.

But seeing a haggard look on Uchiha Tunan's face, he said:

"I'm really too busy with things. Besides, I've taught Itachi all I can teach him. The rest is not something he can learn now."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said solemnly: "You want me to teach him."

Uchiha Tunan nodded, his hopeful gaze looking through the glass wall at Uchiha Itachi who was elegantly shuttled among the hidden weapons and said:

"That's right, Itachi's future is not to become me, but to surpass me. He needs the expertise of Bozhong."

Giving this young boy to you is the best destination for him.

Uchiha Tunan turned to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen and smiled.

If it weren't for the chakras of Indra and Asura being connected to the Six Paths Sages of the Pure Land, I wouldn't have had to go through such trouble.

To wipe out a mere relative, you still need to borrow the help of others.

But there is no way, now Uchiha Tunan still needs to maintain his good image.

If it is too powerful and anti-human, it may attract the attention of the Immortal of Six Paths.

Before knowing the specific strength of the Six Paths Immortal, it is better to keep a low profile.

This is one of the reasons why Uchiha Tunan pretends to be blind even though he is so powerful.

What if the Six Paths Sage doesn't allow such awesome beings to exist in the ninja world except Asura and Indra?

To be honest, Uchiha Tunan was not sure about the guy who could seal Kaguya who swallowed the chakra fruit and still existed for thousands of years.

I don't want to take the risk.

No matter what, the Uchiha clan is also a direct family of the Six Paths, so it is best for him to try to avoid messing with them as much as possible.

"I'm usually very busy," Sarutobi Hiruzen politely declined.

Your disciple, isn't that just taking orders from you?

What's more, he is still one of your tribe.

Even if you practice with me every day, I'm afraid you will still be an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf.

However, as soon as Sarutobi Hiruzen refused, Danzo next to him suddenly became interested.

He never worried about loyalty issues. Once he got to the root, brainwashing and tongue-eradicating seals made it almost impossible to betray him.

"I still have some experience in teaching the younger generations, but there just happens to be a lack of people at the root."

When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He glanced at Uchiha Tunan, who seemed to agree, and immediately changed his words:

"But since Itachi is your disciple, he is also my disciple, and I have the responsibility to teach him."

The cooked duck was about to fly, and Danzo was slightly annoyed.

Today, I originally thought that Sarutobi Hiruzen, like myself, came here by putting pressure on Uchiha Tunan, but I didn't expect that it was Sarutobi Hiruzen who was always against me.

This is unreasonable. You have been your old partner for so many years. Could it be that you are no better than the Uchiha brat you had a problem with?

"Hiruzen, please think carefully."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with an expression of sincere consideration for his disciple:

"Danzo, Itachi is still young and not suitable for entering the roots."

"Staying by my side will help him explain more about the will of fire, so as not to go astray in the future."

Upon hearing this, Danzo was dubious about what Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to teach his disciple.

However, Danzo was not picky and immediately changed his target and said:

"What about Shisui? He has been through a lot of battles and can get to the roots and practice."

"Danzo, I will consider this matter carefully." Sarutobi Hiruzen calmly gave him a careless look.

Danzo's face instantly turned gloomy and he said, "What do you mean?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that Danzo's expression was wrong and quickly comforted him:
"Anyway, I've always been concerned about the fundamental manpower issue, so don't worry."

Uchiha Tunan, who was watching the show from the sidelines, was too lazy to pay attention to the verbal exchanges between the two immortals.

Danzo was ruthless in his methods, but he didn't know how to read his mind.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's meaning couldn't be more obvious. You can recruit people from the roots, but you can't recruit too powerful people.

Otherwise, he won't be able to sleep well at night.

This is just like the ancient dynasties in previous lives. As an important minister of the country, you can ask for money or land. Even if you want rights, it is not non-negotiable. But if you insist on a powerful army that is not under the control of the emperor, how is that possible?

Just when Danzo's anger was about to explode, an ANBU member came to the corridor outside the training room and said loudly:

"Sir Tunan, Sarutobi Ichiyama brought him and is currently being examined in the search room."

"bring it here."

Uchiha Tunan greeted, then turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen and said in a deep voice:
"Lord Hokage, I am not a newbie fool. Recently I have heard some rumors saying that I am unfair and favor my clan members."

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen secretly began to speculate in his heart.

Most likely, Sarutobi Ichizan was caught committing something, and even implicated the entire Sarutobi clan.

Otherwise Tunan wouldn't have kept this matter secretive, and even I wouldn't be able to find out the real reason.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath of cigarette and said with a smile:
"It's all just guessing by uninformed villagers. The higher-ups have complete trust in you, Tunan."

Uchiha Tunan just nodded coldly, as if he wanted to take care of business.

This only made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel even more guilty, and he didn't even know why he felt guilty.

This is like a parent who suddenly received a call from the class teacher and asked him to go to school without telling himself the reason.

In short, there is a high probability that the child did something wrong.

Soon, Sarutobi Ichiyama was taken to the training room by the ANBU, and the blindfolds were removed from his eyes.

The moment Sarutobi Ichiyama's blindfold was removed, he could clearly see the three people in front of him.

As an old man of Konoha, he naturally knew the identities of the three of them.

After only a moment of hesitation, Sarutobi Ichizan bowed to Sarutobi Hiruzen and said, "Hokage-sama."

Although he didn't know why he was taken to the Anbu, he thought it had something to do with his son's grievances.

The person he can rely on now is naturally the clan leader, Konoha Hokage.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who didn't know the details, just nodded lightly and left the home field to Uchiha Tunan.

But seeing Uchiha Tunan's serious expression, he shouted:
"Sarutobi Ichizan, do you know that if you deal with your own situation seriously, you will probably die."

When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this, his eyelids twitched slightly.

Is it so serious? I don't even know what outrageous things they did behind my back.

Damn it, these rubbish will hold me back.

Danzo on the side had also heard about this, but he didn't pay much attention to it before, but now he doesn't mind gossiping.

And there seems to be something wrong with Sarutobi Hiruzen's appearance.

Sarutobi Ichizan raised his head and glanced at Uchiha Tunan, and then shifted his gaze to Haruyukai who was standing respectfully in the corner.

Is Konoha already dark to this extent? Because I had plans to take action last time, so I was ready to eradicate it.

Even Hokage-sama and Danzo-sama are on the same side with him
Why am I so stupid? I naively thought that Hokage-sama would seek justice for me.

Even for a little person like me, they bullied me like this, which shows how disappointed Madara-sama was back then.

Madara-sama, Konoha is sorry for you.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Ichizan glared back at Uchiha Tunan, neither humble nor arrogant:
"Lord Tunan, what do you mean?"

Uchiha Tunan sneered and said leisurely:
"You must not be a fool for being able to endure it in Konoha for so long."

"Since I lost my sight, my perception has become much stronger."

"You have a dark aura about you, and you're not even remotely powerful."

"How do you explain it?"

When Sarutobi Ichiyama heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

The curse mark Madara planted on me was discovered?
Or has someone noticed that I secretly sucked the blood of animals recently?

Why have I endured it for so long? I just gained the strength. You are mistaken.

But how can this kind of thing be explained? Sarutobi Ichiyama is not stupid. He knows that as long as he tells the story about Uchiha Madara, he will immediately be accused of treason and executed.

But he didn't know how to answer Uchiha Tunan's question.

Having been an honest friend all his life, his mind was confused for a moment and he couldn't think of lies, so he could only stumble and reply:
"I really don't understand what you are talking about, sir."

At this time, both Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo could see Sarutobi Ichizan's guilty conscience.

Uchiha Tunan turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen and opened his mouth, but stopped when he wanted to speak, then took a deep breath, and then said coldly to Sarutobi Ichizan:

"If I hadn't investigated you carefully and found that your experience was relatively clean, you wouldn't be alive today."

"I also understand every ninja's pursuit of power, but they should not kill other people's lives."

"Orochimaru back then was a lesson learned from the past." When Uchiha Tunan said this last sentence, he turned his head to Sarutobi Hiruzen again.

Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately understood the key words.

Orochimaru.

Human experiments? Was it that someone in the Sarutobi clan colluded with Orochimaru to do human experiments in the past, or were they doing it themselves now?

This bunch of losers didn't even show off their status by peeing, but they actually dared to do human experiments, and were caught by ANBU.

Do they think I've been in the position of Hokage for too long?

"Yishan, what did you do behind your family's back?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen wished he could just slap the clansman in front of him to death right now.

"I I didn't."

Sarutobi Ichiyama's voice was inaudible, and his resistance was weak.

The guilt is already painted on his face.

It's useless not to admit it. This is the ANBU. People from the Torture Department will search and examine everything, and all the taboo content will come out.

However, Uchiha Tunan did not immediately order a search of Sarutobi Ichizan's memories, but instead said to Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo:

"Two adults, I hope you will restrain and warn your respective tribesmen when you return."

"Konoha is going through a war and is extremely short of manpower. Afterwards, I will make appropriate adjustments to the allocation of resources to each clan based on their merits and demerits."

Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that Uchiha Tunan seemed to be prepared not to delve into the matter, and he was half relieved, and immediately smiled kindly and said:
"Tunan, you are the most fair in what you do. I completely trust you. I will not question this matter."

"I also believe in Tunan." Danzo couldn't guarantee whether there was something wrong within his family. Seeing that Uchiha Tunan brought him with him, there was a high probability that something was wrong.

But it shouldn't be as serious as the Sarutobi clan.

If someone offers to sell you a favor, you will naturally accept it.

As I get older, I still care about the younger generations of my family.

Immediately afterwards, Uchiha Tunan said to the confused Sarutobi Ichizan:

"Your situation is the most serious. Elder Danzo happens to be short of people. If you can defeat my disciple, then I will spare your life."

"It's just that you need to give up everything in the past. The root is suitable for you. Use the rest of your life to shine and heat Konoha."

With that said, at the signal of Uchiha Tunan, Chun Yuhuai opened the iron door next to the glass wall.

"Go ahead, this is your only chance to survive."

Sarutobi Ichiyama glanced at the people in the room, but his mind had not yet reacted.

What happened to me? Why did I suddenly become a heinous person? I had to rely on my enemies to keep me safe in order to survive.

He didn't seem to produce any evidence and I was convicted?
In a state of confusion, Sarutobi Ichiyama had unconsciously stepped through the iron gate.

Hearing the iron door behind him being closed, Sarutobi Ichizan woke up and quickly sorted out what happened.

Hmm. It should be that after I obtained Madara-sama’s curse seal, some abnormalities occurred in my body, and Uchiha Tunan just happened to discover it.

He probably doesn't know Madara-sama, otherwise he wouldn't let me go.

Maybe he noticed that the power in my body was abnormal and thought that I had harmed many people.

But in order not to offend the clan leader, I was given a chance to live.

What should I do with my son? These are completely different things.

Sarutobi Ichiyama subconsciously wanted to turn around, but stopped abruptly.

This matter cannot continue, otherwise I will be exposed and cannot affect my original revenge plan.

I can only trust Madara-sama.

Now I need to survive.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Ichiyama's eyes became firm and he looked down at Uchiha Itachi who was standing with his hands tied.

"Whoosh~"

Sarutobi Ichiyama's body flashed, and with just his physical strength, he turned into an afterimage and rushed towards Uchiha Itachi below.
